2.3.1 Requirements
a) The RS485 specification requires the Signal A and Signal B wires.
b) Each node also requires (5 V) Excitation of the RS485 termination network.
c) Vim - the common mode voltage between any pair of RS485 chips may not exceed 10
V.
d) A physical ground connection between all RS485 circuits will reduce noise.
2.3.2 Bus segment termination network
The termination network below required at each end of each Bus Ph-segment.

ExV is supplied by the Node at end of the Bus Segment
The specifications of the components are:
a) Ru + 5 V to Signal B = 390 W, 0.25 W ±2.5%
b) Rt Signal B to Signal A = 220 W, 0.25 W ±2.5%
c) Rd Signal A to GND = 390 W, 0.25 W ±2.5%
2.3.3 Bus power distribution
The end node in each Ph-segment applies 5 V bus excitation power to the Termination network via
the Excitation pair (ExV+ and GND) used in the Type 3 Physical layer specification.
